Besides ordinary time, the clock gives the chance to find out some astronomical information, in particular: relative positions of the sun, moon, zodiacal constellations, and sometimes major planets. At the same time it indicates the meridian, horizon, time of sunrise and sunset according to the sun movement, moon age and a real movement of the moon around the earth. The moon has a crucial importance for the earth cycle and that’s why the information provided by the astronomical clock is useful and at the same time interesting.
